The people around them were shocked by Dong Xia’s temperament. After a long time, someone reacted to Dong Xia’s words.
“There’s no need to interact with such people. 1 hate such people the most.”
“That’s right. Miss Dong’s choice was right. Don’t let a bad apple like Gu Man ruin the whole bunch”
“Who’s the bad apple?”
Amidst the cursing, this rhetorical question sounded especially abrupt. The crowd was silent for a moment. Soon, everyone turned to look at the source of the voice. Gu Man stood there with her arms crossed. Her expression was extremely faint, but it was terrifying for no reason.
It was also an awkward moment to be caught bad-mouthing someone, so no one replied to Gu Man. The huge banquet hall became a little quiet, leaving only the sound of music.
Almost as soon as the crowd made way, Dong Xia saw Gu Man standing there alone. She had a cold aura and she did not seem to have a vulgar aura like what the others said. Instead, she seemed noble.
When this thought appeared in Dong Xia’s mind, even she was shocked by her own thoughts. How could she think that such a person was noble?
“I don’t seem to have invited you.” Dong Xia and Gu Man looked at each other through the crowd.
Their gazes converged in the air, and a silent war burned.
The confrontation between the two ended when Dong Xia shifted her gaze.
Dong Xia looked elsewhere in a sorry state. Her heart was beating non-stop, not because Gu Man’s gaze was aggressive, but because Gu Man’s gaze did not have any offense. Instead, that cold gaze was even more terrifying. A single glance could freeze someone in place.
That was why Dong Xia looked away in such a sorry state. She was worried that if she looked again, she would be sucked in.
Gu Man tilted her head slightly and looked at the crowd. Although they were at eye level, it made people feel that she was standing at a high place.
“I’m standing in front of you now. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can say it in front of me. It’s just that I won’t change.” The extremely arrogant words coming out of her mouth didn’t make her look abrupt. Instead, one would feel that such words should be said by someone with such a temperament and face.
The crowd was even quieter. Gu Rou and Zhong Yao looked at each other. The two of them were surprised by Gu Man’s appearance, but the situation was gradually getting out of control. They had to appear.
“Sister, why didn’t you tell us in advance that you were coming? Otherwise, I would have gone with Cousin to pick you up.” Gu Rou was the first to speak, breaking the silence. The crowd became noisy again.
“Get lost.” Unexpectedly, Gu Man did not give Gu Rou any face at all. The vulgar words coming from her mouth did not have the aura of a commoner, only nobleness.
Zhong Yao was surprised by Gu Man’s directness, but she also knew that this was her chance. Hence, she immediately frowned and stared at Gu Man unhappily. “Cousin, Cousin Gu Rou and I have good intentions. How can you ruin our good intentions like this?”
Gu Man’s gaze shifted to Zhong Yao and she opened and closed her mouth. “You get lost too.”
Zhong Yao was stunned in the courtyard. Her mouth opened and closed, but she could not say a word. She was stunned on the spot.
“Pfft.” Cui Ya and Cui Xuan stood at the back of the crowd. When they heard Gu Man’s words, they laughed out loud without hesitation.
Cui Ya’s mood became even better. It seemed like she was definitely not too cowardly. Under Gu Man’s mouth, no one could survive.
Gu Man heard the laughter and narrowed her eyes at Cui Ya. “Have you completed the mission I left for you?”
Cui Ya was stunned for some reason. She swallowed her saliva and stammered, “W-What mission? Why don’t I remember?”
Beside her, Cui Xuan reminded her at the right time, “Sister, Sister Gu Man asked you to copy all those words and remember them.”
Cui Ya trembled even more. She covered her ears with her hands. “I’m not listening. I’m not listening.”
Gu Man chuckled at Cui Ya’s appearance and quickly walked towards her.
The others took the initiative to make way for her because of her aura. No one dared to stop her..
